I'm still trying to figure out what your product does, and how it works. Questions that come to mind at first glance (although I'm sure I can reason some through, and take guesses... and probably think of more):
- I just download this onto my phone?
- Where would the presentation be stored?
- What do I have to do on the presenting machine?
- What does the remote look like?
- Is the remote going to force my screen not to lock?
- Will my screen be bright and distracting to my audience?
- Why is there no information? Is this malware?
- How do I get rid of the Tip box which is covering text, because I'm using 200% zoom on Retina?
- Why is there a log in? There's no accompanying register.
- What software does this work for?
Also, your logo is really fuzzy, and your HRs don't match up... but that's just me being picky!
Almost all of the presentations I have seen at work have been shared with people on the phone as well (using terrible sharing tech, I might add). I agree with other posters that having an offline backup solution is important, but given how losing network connectivity already breaks meetings for us, I think having to load up from a USB drive would be an acceptable delay.
A portion of our meetings have demo sections. Either showing off features of some web app from their computer, or VNCing into a server and demo'ing functionality from terminals.
We have to hook up a computer to the projector in a room regardless - there isn't one already there. Having multiple presenters in one meeting would definitely go smoother, though it doesn't happen that often. Startup time would definitely be faster though, as noted our web conference software sucks.
I also like the idea (posted elsewhere) to be able to draw on the slides / point things out.
The problem I see is that by requiring a working internet connection on your smartphone and the computer you use to present, this add a number of points of failure. I'd feel safer with just a USB key (+ publicly accessible copy on the web) and a PDF.
It would be cool if you'd show the presentation on the phone too and let the presenter use the phone (or tablet) to draw/highlight stuff live.
Nice work guys. The demo is quite exciting and easy to understand.
I would use it for its cool quotient - I can press next on my phone without anyone noticing - magic!
Though, network connectivity and document confidentiality are major concerns. What do you think?
